In 1981 the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology was awarded to Roger Sperry for his work on the functional specialization of the cerebral hemispheres, and to David Hubel and Torsten Wiesel for their work on information processing in the visual system. The present paper points to some important links between the work of Sperry and that of Hubel and Wiesel and to their influences on neuroscience in the best tradition going back to Cajal.
1981年,诺贝尔医学或生理学奖授予罗杰·斯佩里,以表彰他在大脑半球功能特化方面的研究;同时授予戴维·休伯尔和托尔斯滕·维厄瑟尔,以表彰他们在视觉系统信息处理方面的研究。本文指出了斯佩里的研究与休伯尔和维厄瑟尔的研究之间的一些重要联系,以及他们对神经科学的影响,这些影响秉承了可追溯至卡哈尔的最优秀传统。
